Company is not issuing experience certificate

I have worked in a very ethical pvt company (Belong to the most respectful brand of India, TATA) for almost 4 years. On the basis of experience in this company I have applied for a managerial post in a govt bank and I have finally selected. Now my new employer is asking for experience certificate which clearly shows the nature of duties I have performed, otherwise I will not allow to join. I have contacted to HR department of my previous employer to get his certificate, but they have denied to produce me the experience certificate. Even I have sent them the letter from nationalized bank, in which it clearly mentioned the necessity of the documents. Even I have contacted to HR head of my previous employer, but still there is not any positive answer I have received from them.

In such case kindly help me as I have already resign from current employee to get relieving letter in time and if I will not able to join my next employee due to non availability of work experience certificate, I will loose both jobs. Kindly suggest me in this regard.

Thanks
Manoj Kumar Bairwa

Dear Manoj

TATA must be having their pre-determined HR Policy as all the big organisations have Experience Letter in many organisation is normally given after 5 or more year in service

If u get the TATA HR Policy in place then only appropriate measures can be taken

Can be PNB cancel my candidature on the basis of not producing the experience certificate, although same has been checked during my interview as well. After that I have been selected.
